I think I'm allowed to print now..
I've been busily packaging and shipping all morning and have found a bug with the new Stamps.com update...even tho I'm selecting to notify ya'll by email, the check box keeps unselecting itself, so no emails are being sent...SOOO...if you are curious about a tracking number, email me and I'll forward it to you..These are dated to ship on Monday but i'm going to drop them off this afternoon at my local PO and they'll be 'in transit' so you oughta see them by Wed and Thur next week, possibly sooner..(did you know the mail is processed on Sunday, just not delivered..? so things are still moving over the weekend, although you might not realize it..i can hear the employees working on Sunday when i check my PO box..its like hearing Keebler elves...)
what does that mean? well, everytime I started to get the printing done to ship, Clementine would crawl under the printer (its elevated on a stand next to my computer) and lay all over the printing labels..I didn't want to try printing with her up here, her hair would clog the printer something fierce...but today, Clem is in trouble and not in the studio at the moment...she was eating my bamboo plant, and knocked it off the desk and it crashed to the floor...Lydia gave me this plant, it had a beautiful blue vase and now its in bits and pieces all over the floor..Clem has been banished from the studio for the day...ggggrrrrr....
Sandi left a good comment yesterday about when I choose to end my auctions..actually, all my eBay auctions do end in the evening, 9:30pm Eastern, 8:30pm Central, and 6:30pm Pacific..that way, everyone ought to be home by the time the auction closes, and able to bid...the Cubes 'auction' that I held on my site yesterday closed at 3:00pm Central cause, well, I've *tried* doing Pickings in the evenings, and guess what - no one shows up! I've tried it a few times, and it was interesting to say the least...After a couple of attempts, I decided it wasn't the right thing for ya'll, so I keep doing 'day' Pickin's...actually, I've posted enough Pickin's of late that they weren't all snatched up in 30 seconds, so there has been time to get in on them for everyone, and I'm glad for that...So while its a great idea, it just never took hold...
Brian asked what we are doing today, I told him I needed to get on the torch and he was all for that...so it looks like I'll be working (yea) and he'll be 'I dunno what' but he'll find something...Time to fire up the printer and get everything shipped (its all packaged, just not labeled)...you should receive an email w/ a tracking number and if you don't get one, then I'm probably remaking your beads per your request...so don't worry, they'll all get there soon...
Tonight is UT vs Ohio State...should be a great game, and I hope we don't get pounded into the pavement...Hook 'Em Horns!

Well, not all of us got to the Pickin's page fast enough to get things, but I've been sort of distracted lately--anyway, great to see you making things again and I hope you make more of those earring pairs! I really liked them....
All the best, as always

Deja vu! I was swamped yesterday with kiddie activities and didn't get to check your website so I missed the ice cube action. Friday night I had been looking at your gallery and admiring the ice cubes thinking how gorgeous they were. Rather eerie but I'm so excited that you may be making more....
